demux/muxing of channels is one task that has been difficult to map to the
command-line option syntax used in ecasound. You can do it, but the syntax
is not always pretty (and gets very ugly if you have a _lot_ of channels).

You can't from ecasound, but as Dave already mentioned, you can use any
JACK routing utility like jack_connect, qjactctl, etc to make the
connections. I actually was thinking of adding "jack-connect" and
"jack-disconnect" commands to ecasound's interactive mode, but there
didn't seem to be muc demand for them so those were left on the todo list.
So you add inputs and outputs with "ai-add jack" and "ao-jack", connect
them to the write chains and then use an external app (or the libjack
API) to make the connections.

If you want to do this without JACK:
ecasound -a:c1 -i foo1.wav \
-a:c2 -i foo2.wav -erc:1,2 -eac:0,1 \
-a:c3 -i foo3.wav -erc:1,3 -eac:0,1 \
-a:c4 -i foo4.wav -erc:1,4 -eac:0,1 \
-a:all -o alsa,plughw:0
But yeah, this is much nicer with JACK. :)
PS Cc'ed to PlanetCCRMA list as the question was also asked there...
